so the competitive thing -- i am not a big fan of that sort of thing. here we are at freedom fest and two kinds of people come to freedom fest. there are those who are so busy that they come in and they are lucky to be here a day or two and then they have to go do this or that. especially speakers. there are two kinds of speakers. we encourage speakers to come and spend all three days at freedom fest and just relax and go to sessions that have nothing to do with what they do normally in business. just take it as a break away from finance. if you are a finance person go to the arts and literature and science and technology. in our music we have music with bob greenberg. that rule should be packed. it was half full when he talked about beethoven. he is the number one teacher, 28 courses on classical music. i am hoping on saturday is in the same room, bob greenberg will talk about music that has caused a riot. it is an interesting topic. but that is me. i am an eclectic person. i am interested in a variety of topics. i will never forget my first experience

was doing wrong, often by not having a big enough government. the obama administration response to this i thought was fascinating. a prominent response, so unfair for the u.n. to say that the u.s. is systematically violating u.s. rights because last year we passed obama care and took a giant stride toward recognizing our international human rights obligations in health care. this falls into the category of reassurances that leave me less reassured. i find it bothersome. i think that would have been an additional reason to vote against it. people that are you publicly it it was required for international human rights obligations. and similarly in the controversy in recent weeks and wisconsin i wish i had a dollar for every time that someone has argued that what governor walker did in repealing some of the old publication rights actually was a violation of international human rights. vary widely argued in litigation. so there is a pattern here. much as it was a priest in the 1970's. the u.s. constitution required to properly read court enforcement

>> well, um, there were both small and big themes. there were small patterns. three of the seven people were child jockeys. two of the seven individuals, actually, were slaves to confederate forces in fort sumter and the coastal war in the carolinas, they were not confederates, they were slaves to the confederate forces. um, so there were odd little connections to that. but the bigger connection was that even the people who left south carolina and were very glad to escape or survive slavery and otherwise left the state all wrote of their lives as south carolinians, all firmly identified themselves as sort of having a fraught relationship to where they're from. but, oh, they weren't going to let someone take that away from them. they would not identify themselves as africans with the one exception, perhaps, of boston kings who ended up going back to africa. but the rest of them they distinctly wanted to claim themselves as part of history even though they may have left the state. and i think that was the most powerful theme we found from the 18th to the early 20
